Pan/Crop Questions

I'm just getting into using VMS (ver7) to do slide shows, having used a different program in the past, and I have a couple of questions.

1/ Is there any way to select a whole group of pictures and apply random transitions to them? Or does one have to do this individually if you want different transitions?

2/ Having applied a pan/crop to a picture, how can I go back and remove this?

3/ Can you set up a pan/crop and save it as a preset to use in another project? I seem to be having a problem doing this.

Thanks, and Happy New Year.

I got #3!!

After you've made your panning & cropping adjustments, go up to the drop-down menu ( it may say untitled or default ), erase it and put in the name you want for that adjustment you just made, then click on the disk right next to the menu to save it & then you can use it for other pictures.

I think I've got #2 also.

After you've put your saved adjustment on the picture, when you click on the pan/crop button again, it comes up as Untitled on the drop down menu. To remove the adjustments, click on the drop down menu and click on default.

Easier way to do #2 ... right-mouse-button click in the pan/crop window and choose Restore.

#1 isn't possible in Vegas Movie Studio. There are scripts available for the full version of Vegas that can do this, but the Studio version doesn't run scripts.
